Refuse To Be Saved - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)/The Roots
Now that you set everybody free
What you going to do about me
Don't want to be treated
Like some poor grateful clown
I'd rather go back in the sweet underground
Where I can tell the time by
The colour of my skin
And I know my neighbour 'cos he's the one
Yes he's the one
Who always turns me in
A woman works the tunnel
In the middle of the night
Picking up every lost object in sight
Handbags toupees lost legs and fingernails
The black market eats up all your failures
Her transistor offers no salvation or regrets
No pool no pets no cigarettes
Just non-stop Disco Tex and the Sex-o-lettes
There's no name there's no name
There's no name there's no name
There's no name there's no name
For the pain we'll cause you again and again
For the pain we'll cause you again and again
The Liberation Forces make movies of their own
Playing their Doors records and pretending
To be stoned
Drowning out a broadcast that wasn't authorised
Incidentally the revolution will be televised
With one head for business
And another for good looks
Until they started arriving with
Their rubber aprons and their butcher's hooks
There's no name there's no name
There's no name there's no name
There's no name there's no name
For the pain we'll cause you again and again
For the pain we'll cause you again and again
They're hunting us down here with Liberty's light
A handshaking double talking procession of the mighty
Pursued by a T V crew and coming after them
A limousine of singing stars and their brotherhood anthem
The former dictator was impeccably behaved
They're mopping up all the stubborn
Ones who just refuse to be saved
I refuse to be saved
